Honey Badgers care only about badger chow and tracking Laurie.  And Laurie has learned the secret to sooth them also with her gourmet cooking.
How were you able to trick them into leaving their larder and prey.
I know....belly rubs!

It works...

   Today I went to the neighboring town's library and had my signature (Both) witnessed and my swearing that the info on the form was true. The notary then signed and stamped the form. I then took it, another form, one copy of the court order for my name change, and a check, put them in and envelope sealed it and dropped it off at the post office. What was this for you ask? Why to change my name and gender on my birth certificate of course. I should receive 2 corrected official copies in 2 - 3 weeks.
  I also stopped by the 2 banks I use and tried to change names on the accounts. No luck on either for different reasons. I'll go back and try again another day.
  Tomorrow is my 2 hour visit with Christina. I'll fill her in on the visitor I had recently while she is zapping my face.
  I started another medication today. Babapentin, for a constant low grade pain I have had for years now. It hurts more from time to time but it got to be quite a lot when I was visiting my girlfriend last time. It was quite painful quite a bit of the time I was there. Hopefully this will make it go away.

  That's all Folks

Congratulations on taking those really important steps to make those changes. I am still finding my old name after over a year since I started changing it 

Take care

Hi Laurie,

Glad you had a great time with Michelle while she was visiting. I just woke up and reading about the breakfast you cooked for her was making my mouth water! Nice photos too.

Great news about submitting the paperwork to change your birth certificate. There is no stopping you now......you're on fire girl!

Hugs,
Jayne

Hi Laurie! Sorry I've missed so much of your goings on. Congratulations on the all-clear results! Glad the name change finally got done. And I'm happy things are still going great with you and Michelle!

I gained SIX POUNDS in a week.  AYEEE!

That means I have something like a month of salad lunch and dinners and grapefruit breakfasts ahead of me.

Six pounds...  Oh, the things I have to put up with.  I tried to commiserate with the honey badgers, but honey badgers don't give a ...

Oh, I know your  pain. Since I've been with Alexa I've put on about 12 pounds. Ugh! Even the move didn't burn much off. Need to start exercising again.

Exercising? ewww too much effort. I prefer to practice portion control myself. The only problem is that I love food and I have never been good a practicing anything.  Sigh. I'm doomed to that maternity looks forever.

Sis, Michelle is a sprinter when she takes a walk, so a few with her will get you enough exercise.
In Astoria I'm certain we can find a nice trail!

  Hi y'all,

   Well I dragged my sister down to the Bank of America Friday to sign the new signature card and the account was changed from what his name to Laurie Jeanette Wickwire. Saturday I received an email that started out with "Hi Laurie" and told me my new card was ordered. I logged into my online account and was happy to see right there at the top of the page "Laurie Jeanette Wickwire"  cooooool !! I recieved another email today telling me my new bank card has been shipped on Saturday.  Squeeeeee!
   Today I got up, sorted pills, ate breakfast then proceeded to investigate what forms and documentation I would need to renew my drivers license. I filled out the forms, printed them out and proceeded to purtify myself..



   Once I was presentable I grabbed my documents and headed off to the Oregon DMV office. After about a half an hour wait I was called to the counter where I presented my renewal form, court order and my old license. I was then given the obligatory vision test required for any 55 and older which I passed no problem. I paid my money, signed the signature card "Laurie Jeanette Wickwire", retrieved my documents and sat down to wait for the new picture to be taken. 5 minutes later I was having my photo taken and was handed my new interim license. My official renewed license should be here in 5 to 10 working days. Squeeeee!

  Change is in the air. SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

@Laurie  Well, Laurie, this is certainly wonderful and affirming good news that you are no doubt enjoying. 
Getting all of your documents in order, especially your Picture ID's is a terrific and good feeling for sure.   What really caught my eye was your very pretty picture that you posted.   Wow-wheee.... and SQUEEEEEEE for certain.
Hugs and well wishes,
Danielle

This such wonderful news. I'm so happy for you Laurie! Getting a new driver's licence with your new legal name and current photo certainly has to be a special moment for you.

And that photo is AWESOME! You should consider making that your profile pic. You look so happy!

Big happy HUG for you!!! [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

Now you are scaring me girl! First you and I start agreeing on things in threads around the forum, now I see your avatar has changed shortly after I suggested you change it. Nice photo btw! Please tell me you intended to make that your avatar pic before I made the suggestion. No, I won't claim any credit. I'm sure you acted on your own free will.
Hmmmm......... but that gives me an idea!
